Marissa had spent the night safely tucked away in Alex's arms, and they had held each other till both had fallen asleep.That night when a distraught Marissa turned up on her doorstep Alex knew that this was the girl she wanted. Neither one wanted to take their relationship any further, just being together and holding one another was enough to make everything right. They had slept peacefully, nothing disturbed them from the trance like state they were in and when morning came both girls felt truly content.
The two young lovers lay entwined beneath the sheets. Both pretending to be in a deep sleep, when actually neither were, but each secretly catching a glimpse of the other 'sleeping' . Alex gently placed a hand on Marissa's hair and began to caress the silky brown waves that covered the pillow. As Alex closed her eyes and ceased stroking in fear of waking her, Marissa opened her eyes and gazed longingly at Alex. Suddenly they were both looking into each others eyes lovingly, and when they both realised that neither one of them had been asleep they burst into fits of laughter. It was only a brief moment, but the two would share that happy memory for ever.
When the laughter had died out and the girls had calmed down, it was Alex who broke the awkward silence that had appeared after the ridiculous outburst of laughter. Smiling cheerfully she took a few moments before the words came out, because she was so lost in what was happening, in the euphoria of what they were experiencing together.
"So, what you wanna do today then, I don't have to be at the Bait shop till later on so we've got all day"
"Anything as long as it's with you" Marissa beamed.
"Anything?" replied Alex slyly.
" Yeah, why? what were you thinking of doing?"
" Nevermind" she chuckled
"Aw go on tell me, im sure it's a great idea!"
" I want to spend the whole day long in bed with a beautiful girl!"
" Oh my god, who?"
" You silly!"
" Oh yeah, you think i'm beautiful?"
" Of course i do! You're the most beautiful person i have ever met in my entire life!"
" That's really sweet, and i would love to spend the day in bed with my girlfriend, but..."
" But what?"
" But you promised me that surf lesson remember!"
" Oh! I do remember! and you just called me your girlfriend! "
" Yeah i did"
"Cool"
" We're girlfriend and girlfriend right?" Marissa questioned
" Yeah course we are "
" I love you"
" I love you to!"
Alex leaned across to Marissa, untill their faces were merely an inch apart, and she smiled, a really content sort of smile, and rubbed noses with Marissa.Marissa however was unable to contain her affection and immediatley pulled Alex towards her. She began to kiss Alex passionatley and held her face, stroking the soft rosy skin and closing her eyes as she deepened the kiss. Both girls were still smiling uncontrollably, letting their hands explore each others bodies,gliding along the smooth skin and wandering over the curves with excitement.With them it was like it was the first time all over again, they were both shy and nervous yet still so eager, and that made the love they shared so much more thrilling. Marissa was about to slip one hand inside Alex's girl boxers but Alex caught sight of what she was doing and pulled her hand away.
'' Not yet"
Marissa's face suddenly displayed a confused expression.
" Don't get me wrong, i want to do this, but i think we should wait, you know take things slowly and wait till you're ready for this."
" But i am ready Alex"
"Yeah but still..are you sure you want to do this now? 'Cause i'll always be here for you, ya know, so we have all the time in the world and i can wait forever if thats what you want."
"Okay"
"You sure it's okay with you?"
"Yeah it's fine"
"Great, well i just think we should take things as they come, we'll know when the time is right"
"Sure"
"Sorry please don't be mad at me riss"
" I'm not mad at you at all, honestly it's okay!"
" I guess it's me who's not ready for this, not you"
" It's okay"
" It's just that i guess im kinda nervous about this whole thing, and your really special to me so i want everything to be perfect for you"
" Thanks, but Alex everything is perfect already, you're perfect and i really love you so it won't make a difference to me"
" I know but still i think i want to wait"
"Cool then we'll wait, no hurry"
"Thanks Riss"
"No problem, i'd do anything for you"
"Thats sweet"
"Yeah and it's the truth, so are we gonna go surfing or what?"
"Yep can't wait to watch you fall off!"
" Hey don't be mean"
" Aww sorry"
" Say sorry properly!"
"I just did!"
" No you didn't you were being sarcastic!"
" Fine Sorry... Loser!" Alex taunted.
And with that Marissa grabbed a pillow and threw it straight at Alex's Head. It hit her slap bang in the middle of her face. Alex groaned and tumbled off the bed,hitting her head on the bed post and landing with a great thump on the floor. She lay there motionless. Marissa's jaw dropped. For a moment she watched Alex, hoping it was just a stupid prank, a childish hoax. But Alex remained on the floor motionless. Marissa rapidly hurtled off the bed and began to shake Alex franticly. But still no sign of life.
